Interested in getting High End Custom guitar?

[Ice]

I thought I'd see what you guys thought on here cause you all are always buying/selling new gear. I got involved with a new company building custom guitars comparable to Tom Anderson/Brian Moore. The prices however are a lot less and the product is same or better quality. Plus the guitars are 100% handbuilt in the USA.

I wanted to see if any of you were interested in them or looking towards getting a new high end axe soon this is for you. Drop top strat styles, PRS type style, Tele style and more. Also are doing basses and baritones..sorry no 7 strings... yet.

EDIT - I would say post pics or links or whatever you've got. However, this sounds too much like a salespitch and thought I'd warn you before the thread gets locked in the event you don't know why.

Of course, most people here are rabid gear junkies, so there's bound to be interest. Post pics, specs, links and prices and you may get some serious interest. Until then, it sounds like vapour.

No I asked permission before posting... He said all is cool because it's a brand new small company (3 people) just don't be spamming on the board.

So with that cleared up what do you think?

[darren wilson]

I have no opinion until i see photos, specs and prices.

That depends on what you want... Prices start at $899 and our most expensive model is like $3000.. It's fully carved like a ESP Screaming Skulls kind of carve that is. Except it's a shark with wave inlays.
$899 base price on a Varsailles

Versailles = 27fret bolt on neck 20-27 scalloped Alder body 2 Duncan humbuckers coil tapped.
Versailles Pro = $1499 same neck but Mahogany body AAAAA Maple top, list of pickups to choose but stock is DiMarzio X2N in bridge and sustainiac steal plus in neck
(Body on this model is comparable to a soloist but cut the bottom horn in an extra inch to add total access. Also the back of the guitar is shaved a half inch by the neck joint for total comfort/access)

Strat-O-Various = $1700 this is your Drop top strat AAAAA maple top, Wilkinson tremolo with Piezo system 24 fret neck (you can pick whatever woods for the most part on necks with no added charge)

T31 = $2200 Double cut away Mahogany body AAAAA Maple tops gold hardware 24 fret 25in scale necks Piezo system locking tuners

Floyd Rose Trems come with locking nut and Grover Tuners, Wilkinson trems come with Locking tuners.

Options include, but not limited to... Piezo system, 13pin Midi system, Dynamic fretboards (rosewood fade to maple) Exotic Woods, Hardware color (red/blue/black/chrome/gold etc) Basically limitless color choices on stains.
All Guitars included Hardshell case except the standard Versailles which comes with a gigbag

an X2N as a stock pickup?!? dayum!

[Ice]

yea Nuno thats why i replied to your ad looking for one. However you being over seas I thought shipping would make that a dumb idea.
We also offer the Multibucker which I really love it has a very "stringy sound" hear every individual note.

We've been looking and finally just got a White Ibanez 540PII off somebody and had it repainted Nuclear white, added Gold Hardware (trem and all) and Multibuckers coil tapped it's a real beauty. I'll have to get some pictures of it for people on here. I'm not sure how to post them though cause you can't upload it looks like the pics have to be on a site and you link to put them on here. othe wise I'd have pics of models for you but our site won't be up for a couple weeks just been to busy.

Type all you want....nobody's likely to buy jack if there's no place to see your work. Do you have any completed work? Interent business is very important to any shop, 3 people or 300 people. If nobody has heard of you or knows who you are, you need to kinda give us a clue and some evidence that you've at least done this. Maybe you should try this when you have a site.

[Ice]

if you read before you spoke you would see i said I have pics but the way this forum is setup you can't post pics unless they are loaded onto a site/server 1st. We've been too busy with our day jobs and construction on these to desing the webpage but it will be up in the coming weeks.

Obviously building something for somebody we'd give them example pics and send them pics of their guitar through the building process. Plus it's not a huge investment when we only require 20% down to start building which is like 300 dollars. All guitars have a warranty and if you didn't like something we'd obviously change it to how you do like it. You have the ability so pic all your neck specs so it should play and feel the way you want it too.

Ice dude,i think all Ankhnaten was trying to say is,You maybe should have waited until your site was done,then try and test the waters ... I'll quite happily host your pics until your site is finished for Free ;-)

I just wanted to get a response to see what people were thinking and let them in at an important time in a company's life. The prices are going to be cheapest now because it's directly from us. Prices will obviously go up when we put them in stores, not to mention right now you can order a guitar and have it done in 4-6 weeks.
Instead of putting extra time into getting a site done with little or no models we're focusing on getting some out there with the 1st five orders being made as we speak.

Here's basically what you'd be looking at...
T31

Nonetheless, as Jem7RB MK said, i simply mean you'd probably get a better response if there was some credit to what you're saying. There's plenty of interest I am sure. But I don't think anyone would just send you 20% of anything based on a table of prices with no proof of what they are paying for...
